I really enjoyed the writing and character development in this book, I loved Lena & just wanted everything to work out for her. Towards the end it got pretty confusing which I didn't love but I think that was the purpose of the book, it just didn't perfectly align with my reading tastes. A solid medical horror though with very important & well executed commentary.
